giving thanks...one last time.

ever since we moved to boston we've spent thanksgiving with my brother eric and his wife katie and whatever kids have joined in during that time. well, we had a bitter-sweet thanksgiving up in rochester knowing that this would be our last year of stuffing our faces together! like the past three years we had another great week with them and their kiddos spending lots of time playing games, watching kids play and eating enough to feed us all for at least a month. it was fun to watch these 4 kiddos (all under the age 4) together mostly enjoying all of their time together. we are really going to miss these east coast thanksgivings with our other east coast family!

instead of shopping on black friday we went to palmyra to see the sites there. these 3 were very interested in what this sister missionary was teaching them about the book of mormon.at hill cumorahcalvin, cameron, annie

wrestling, or "ras" as calvin called it. this week calvin learned what it really means to wrestle and any waking minute he was trying to wrestle somebody. the first night we got there calvin and cameron went at it pretty good (for 2 two-year olds) and from then on calvin tried to convince cameron that they should wrestle! sometimes travis had to get involved, too.
